It kinda is a cult, yeah. White supremacy combined with "fundamentalist" (but not theologically sound) religion has been our main problem from the beginning.

In the aftermath of the Civil War, we had the chance to hang a lot of the people who were perpetuating the religion of white supremacy, but we didn't do that and are paying for it now.
